Chapter 207: Cooper's Surrender
In an unfamiliar sea, three boats are rocking in the waves.
As the captain of one of the ships, Cooper's brow was tightly locked.
Cooper was a merchant, a very successful merchant who made money selling fabric, and there were only a handful of people in the city who were richer than him.
He used a considerable amount of money to buy a temple priest, and he also became a respected nobleman, you know, in the god king big 6, it is very rare to have a noble status, can be among this class, Cooper's ability is undoubted.
But when the end comes, no amount of money is meaningless if you don't have the life to spend it. After Cooper sells all his property, he plans to buy two tickets to board the Ark and escape from Big 6.
But there are too many people to buy a ticket, and even if he is very rich, he only has enough money to buy a ticket.
Cooper also had a daughter, named Mira, who told her, "Mira, I bought you a ticket to board the ark, and you can take the ark and flee." ”
Mira was taken aback: "Father, can only one person use a ticket?" How could I leave you alone? ”
Mira is Cooper's favorite daughter, and her only daughter, she has a pair of beautiful big eyes, and her appearance is unparalleled in the whole city, and countless people come to the door every day to propose marriage and want to marry Mira.
Cooper is also Mira's most beloved father, and now her father wants to give her the ticket, that is, to give herself the only chance to live, which is unacceptable to Mira, she will not abandon her father, she will die, and she will die together.
Seeing that his daughter refused to board the ark, Cooper had to think of other options.
Because the commoners and nobles in the city have a higher status than the commoners and slaves in the countryside, and they have the right to build their own ships and flee. So, after Cooper sold the tickets to others, he organized a group of urban commoners and low-class nobles to contribute money and efforts, planning to build several large ships together and fight for a life together.
Cooper's appeal was strong and fast. Thousands of commoners and low-class nobles in the city were gathered together by him, and after spending all the money, building, renting, and selling, he finally got ten ships of a thousand materials out, recruited hundreds of sailors, and then the fleet went to sea.
Before boarding the ship, Mira took a nostalgic last look at the six places. Asked the father, "Why did we leave Big 6 and go to the dangerous sea?" ”
Cooper sighed, his eyes were also reluctant, and said: "The tsunami in the east has already exploded once, drowning millions of people, and this tsunami will be even bigger." Except for the Kamino Mountain. No one on the earth could run, and the only thing we were luckier than the countrymen and slaves was that we could ride in a boat of our own making. ”
"Can I see Fuyugi then? He is a redneck, will he be at sea? Mira asked, looking at her father with her big pretty eyes.
"It's impossible...... Let's go, take your things, let's get on board. ”
"Oh, Dodo. Let's go. Mila took the piggy in her arms and boarded the boat.
……
The situation at sea was far more complicated than Cooper thought, and it was less than three months to go to sea, and because of pirates and storms, ten ships became three.
Looking up at the dark clouds in the sky, Cooper closed his eyes in pain. There is no way to avoid this storm, and the ship's leak-proof planks and rivets are all used up, and if it leaks again......
"Captain, I saw a big ship! In that place! "The observing sailor on the mast suddenly reported a news that excited him.
"Hurry up and send out the distress signal, let's get the boat up!" Cooper saw the big ship too.
……
Sitting in the command cabin of the ship island, Tianming was looking around on the sea with a telescope, and suddenly. The sailors on the observation deck rushed over, and Ula Ullah shouted at him, pointing to the direction of the sea.
"Alright, I got it. Three small boats, right? You Blue Star people have such good eyes. Tianming felt that the eyes of these Blue Star people could be used as telescopes.
The control rune crystal allowed the Lidong to move forward, and Tianming soon saw the traces of the three small boats.
These ships cannot be said to be small, in terms of displacement, the displacement of these three small ships is also more than 1,000 tons, about one-tenth the size of the Lidong.
Tianming began to save people.
A few rope ladders were lowered, but only people could climb up. But there are still a lot of things to bring on several small boats, and the people on the small boats carry boxes of things, climbing with one hand and carrying them with the other, which is not only dangerous, but also very hard.
The people on the shipwrecked ship, in addition to the sailors, many of them were blue star people wearing fine cloth clothes and having an aristocratic demeanor in their every move, especially a middle-aged blue star man who was in the lead, with a silk scarf wrapped around his head, a dress similar to silk cloth on his body, and various jewelry, incense wood and other decorations on his body, which looked like a rich man.
He was Cooper, who wore the most expensive clothes and some precious ornaments, the main purpose of which was to attract the attention of the owner of the great ship.
Cooper is in business and knows how to package himself. Who gets the most attention? Of course, the one who was the most dazzlingly dressed, and he wanted to make a good impression on the owner of this big ship.
But the effect was somewhat unexpected.
"It turned out to be a noble lord, why can we all see them at sea?"
"Master, please don't save these shameless guys, they shouldn't be on our ship!"
"These bastards, they killed my parents, sold my sister, I want to kill them!"
"They didn't want to buy the ship, did they? Sue you, our master does not agree! Even if I die, I won't be your slave! ”
The crowd was excited, and most of the humble-born crew members on the ship immediately cast a hateful gaze when they saw these people.
The refugees, who had lived a good few days on the Lidong, had a full meal, had the right to move freely, and there was no one with a whip to supervise their labor. They feel that they have lived the best life in the world, have met the best master, and what the refugees hope most is that this kind of dream in reality can be carried on forever.
Today, there are a few aristocratic lords, a group of city guys, big bags of things, and the clothes they wear are obviously better than their tatters, which evokes the bad memories in the hearts of most of the crew members on the Lidong, and there is a feeling that the dream has been broken by reality, and they don't hate these people.
"These people have a high social status, even the eldest lady who has pets?" Tianming saw a man wearing a floral cloth skirt. After dressing up as an unusually cute blue star girl, she was immediately attracted by the pet pig in her arms, this kind of pig is very similar to the little fragrant pig on the earth, but it is much smaller, pink, and very cute.
"Mira!" A scream of surprise shouted from the crew of the "Lidong".
A young man in tattered clothes and untidy clothes. Rushed out of the crowd.
"Ahh Fuyuyoshi?! You're Fuyuyoshi! ”
Hearing someone call herself, Mira turned her head to look, and when she saw the young man, she also let out a scream of surprise, threw the pet pig in her hand into the hand of the maid, and rushed towards Fuyuyoshi.
"Mira!"
The young man and the young girl hugged each other tightly. Tears of surprise were shed.
This scene was unexpected by everyone.
"Woo woo~~~ Dongyoshi, I thought you were dead? I didn't expect you to be alive. ”
"It was the merciful master who saved us, and without the master, I would never have seen you again."
Fuyuyoshi looked at Tianming, and when he saw that his master was also looking at them, he pulled Mira over and knelt down in front of Tianming.
"The hosts. Thank you for saving us, thank you for putting me and Mila back together, thank you, thank you! ”
"Get up quickly, why do you kneel at every turn?" Helplessly, Tianming exerted another divine power and helped the two up.
"Thank you host, thank you host!"
Dongji took Mira's hand. Excitedly took her around the boat.
After his daughter was taken away, Cooper's face was gloomy, but it was not easy for so many people to be present, so he urged the boatmen to move things quickly, and the storm was coming.
"Thank you for your kindness and acceptance, and I am willing to give my possessions and my abilities. Just want a place on this ship. Cooper walked up, bowed first, and then greeted Tianming.
Although it is too strange to look at Tianming, according to the table of everyone on the ship. Cooper knew that he was the owner of the ship.
Tianming didn't understand what he was saying, so he just waved his hand and asked the silver melon seeds on the side to arrange it for them.
Three small boats, old and young, a total of more than 8oo people, the population of the entire Lidong is close to 4ooo at once, and if you accept a few hundred people, this ship will not be able to accommodate it.
Moreover, nearly 4ooo people's eating, water, living and other problems, the management workload is very large, take water as an example, he does not limit the amount of fresh water used, cooking water, bathing water, toilet water...... Two fresh water tanks plus a cooling chamber of water, a total of 23oo tons, or can only be used for less than 2 days, Tianming in the purification of fresh water, the time spent every day is an hour.
It should be planned to build a couple of new ships.
Tick, tick, it's raining.
Bang! Bang! There was thunder.
Dark clouds shrouded the sky, the sound of wind and thunder gradually rose, and a storm was coming.
After a few drops of rain on his face, Tianming secretly screamed that it was not good, and the Lidong was about to face the test of the first storm.
"Don't move anything, come to the big ship!" Those people in the Tianming Dynasty who were still carrying things from the small boat to the big ship yelled at them to leave their things alone and hurry to the big ship to escape the storm.
Click! Click! Click!
The bean-sized raindrops were sparse at first, then dense, and finally, the entire space was filled with a world of raindrops, and the crackling deck exploded.
The sky was swept through the white lightning, illuminating the dark world, and waves of huge waves were generated, some of which were more than 1o meters high, which was a huge test for the Lidong.
After Tianming dismantled the three stormy boats on the sea and put them into the ability space, he stayed in the command room of the ship island for a while, and was surprised when he saw the tall waves through the glass window: the waves are too big, can the Lidong withstand the impact of the waves?
After shaking the angle of 15 degrees, Tianming was already shaken and turned around, and after covering some hatches on the deck that might leak, Tianming hid in a cabin on the fourth deck, and only this place could slightly alleviate the vomiting and dizziness caused by seasickness.
Tough times have come.
